Pa-Paw was a strong strapping man. His dark eyes, tan skin, and thick greased hair defined him as much as his suspenders and the book at his side. He provided for all of us though his many ventures. Dark handsome looks are forever embedded in my mind. He was creative, spirited, and spoke his mind. He built a house but created a home on the hillside in Rockwood. He will be missed.
